Near Fine in Wraps: shows only the most minute indications of use: just a hint of wear to extremities; mildest rubbing. Binding square and secure; text clean. Very close to 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. 204pp. Map, photos, reading list, index. Preface by H.H. the Dalai Lama. Introduction by Peter Matthiessen. Trade Paperback.
